How Double Gameweek 19 fixture changes have affected my FPL chip and transfer strategies

Like most Fantasy Premier League managers, I am finding it very hard to plan for Double Gameweek 19.

In light of Thursday’s updated fixture list, here is my latest plan for transfers and chip strategies ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

But, you could not have caught me in worse spirits about the way this season is going. Oh, Raz, what have you done to me. 

I know it really shouldn’t matter with everything going on, but Raheem Sterling’s (£11.4m) penalty miss has to go up there with one of my worst ever moments in FPL. 

My Free Hit team was built around him being my key differential, and not content with a spot on the bench until the 82nd minute, Sterling had to go and make things even worse.

Using the brilliant “what if” machine over at LiveFPL.net, I worked out that if Sterling had scored, I would have been catapulted into the top million ahead of my Arsenal contingent facing Crystal Palace.

Even if Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m) had shaken off his fatigue and scored, I’d have still gone up a few hundred thousand places. If ever a moment summed up my season, it happened last night.

With the pain of the miss still fresh in my mind, I now have to turn my attention to planning for the upcoming Gameweeks. We have never known anything like it. Double Gameweeks have dropped off the table, with both Leeds and Southampton now only having one game. There go four players that I had in place ready for Double Gameweek 19.

Aston Villa v Everton is off now too. So, there goes Dominic Calvert Lewin (£7.7m). Dean Smith’s men have earned a fixture back though, hosting Newcastle at the back-end of the Gameweek, although we still don’t know which of their plays have been dealing with coronavirus (COVID-19). And let’s not forget that top target Jack Grealish (£7.7m) is on four yellow cards. Another one against Manchester City and he would miss the second Double Gameweek 19 fixture.

Let’s add to that problem. Bruno Fernandes (£11.3m) is also one booking away from a ban and faces what is likely to be a fiery encounter against Liverpool to come, before playing Fulham. Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is off form. Manchester City are proving rock solid in defence but a bit of a lottery in trying to work out how many goals they will score, even against so-called ‘inferior’ opposition. Are they back, or were good performances against Newcastle and Chelsea just the result of playing teams in poor form?

I am finding it very hard this season and I know I’m not the only one. It feels almost impossible to plan for things when so much is in flux. But, we must try. I’m not going to give up hope, but I am looking at this season through the lens of what it is. No matter what rank I end up with, I will know what went on. I am allowing myself this season as a freebie, whatever happens.

I think I want to have a bit of fun at this stage. I want to give my squad a bit of a freshening up once Double Gameweek 19 is out of the way. I am interested in Percy Tau (£5.5m), mostly due to my Brighton bias, but also because he presents an intriguing cheap option as a potentially out-of-position option. 

Let’s face it, with competition such as Neal Maupay (£6.1m) it’s hard to imagine Tau won’t feature – and his most natural position is as an attacking midfielder. I expect to see him cementing a regular spot in the team going forward, given our lack of real goal threat over the last few months.

Barring any drastic news from the West Ham camp, I am going to finally make a move for Michael Antonio (£6.2m). West Ham have the best Double Gameweek schedule of the lot, hosting Burnley and West Bromwich Albion. 

The reason why I am so keen is because the Hammers have sold Sebastien Haller (£, his only direct competition, to Ajax. While I don’t expect a full 180-minute outing in Double Gameweek 19 for Antonio, it looks like he has returned from injury at a good time, and got minutes in the FA Cup. With Sterling’s penalty miss making one of my low points of FPL, Antonio’s four goals against Norwich was certainly my high point. If he can get close to replicating this then I’ll be a happy man again.

Speaking of West Ham, this seems a great time to invest in their defence. I know a lot of people have got Vladimir Coufal (£4.7m) and he seems a great option for the double – but a double up with Aaron Creswell (£5.4m) could be gold. I’d back West Ham for at least one clean sheet and Creswell has already registered 6 assists in the league.  No defender has got more. Historically, defenders are often great picks in Double Gameweeks with the likes of Branislav Ivanovic, Aymeric Laporte and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) all registering huge returns in seasons gone by. It wouldn’t surprise me to see a West Ham defender as the top-scoring player for the Gameweek.

Sky Fantasy Football: Sticks and Stones? Who to bring in before the Overhaul? 2

Another strong consideration for me is to double-up with Manchester City defenders. John Stones (£5.0) has finally come into my reckoning due to the consistency of strong performances from himself and the rest of the backline. 

At this point, I don’t think the extra £0.8m is worth it for fellow centre back Ruben Dias (£5.8m) and I think not only does Stones keep his place, but he matches the Portuguese internationals points from now until the end of the season. 

That said, I am very glad to have moved for João Cancelo (£5.8m). I am completely and utterly convinced that this man is going to hit a double-digit return soon. Could it be this week? Is he actually an outside captaincy option with other big-hitting players flattering to deceive?

One player who I think I will be keeping is Son Heung-min (£9.8m). His 62.5% ownership means that I’m not getting much benefit from his returns, but it feels amiss to be selling him before a run of games that includes Brighton, West Brom and Sheffield United. 

I had earmarked a swap for him to De Bruyne, but with Pep Guardiola citing fatigue as the reason he didn’t take Manchester City’s penalty – combined with the fact that his side are still playing without a recognised striker AND that he only has one goal from open play this season, decimating my team and taking out the number one point scorer in the game just feels a bit of a luxury transfer when there are other moves I could be making to try and climb the rankings.

So, with fixture rescheduling putting any plans I had for a Bench Boost on hold, I am considering which chip I should use if any. With Fernandes on four yellow cards, I don’t feel confident enough captaining him this week – which makes Salah the obvious choice. 

The trouble is, I’m just not sure how the Manchester United game is going to pan out. I think it might be a very cagey affair. While I think Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have the firepower to put a dent in Liverpool’s title charge, a point would suit them. 

Do I really think Liverpool’s incredible home record of 53 wins and 11 draws in the last 64 games will come to an end against United? I’m just not convinced. At this point, I am strongly considering not using a chip at all and saving them for a bit later in the season. There is the guarantee of further Double gameweeks, and maybe a player will emerge as a stronger Triple Captain option on paper then.

Whatever you decide to do this week, good luck! Double Gameweeks are always something to get excited about. My advice is don’t be afraid to chuck a few hits to bring in some more players and make the most of it.

    3. Eddie

      Creswell of two, but Man City defence also high priority for DGW and going forward.

    4. waldo666
      • 13 Years

      Stones

      3 years, 2 months ago

      Robbo

  4. Ibralicious
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Adams + Bednarek -> Antonio + Dawson (-4) Yay or nay?

    (if not Dawson then would have to be Lowton or Holding)

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Probably yes and Dawson over Holding since he has two games

  5. sunzip14
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Very happy to wake up with 54points without FH and hits.

    1. Ibralicious
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I got 54 with the FH so that's a madness

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Almost the same 60-8

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That’s really good. Only scored 10 pts more on FH.

    4. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Only got 49 on free hit.

    5. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm on 51. At one point last week losing the Spurs Villa games I was moaning away. Bit of a rollercoaster with fixture shifts. Turned out alright in the end.

    6. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That's excellent. I was happy with 43 (no FH). The FH team I would have gone for would have only got me 13 more points.

  6. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Brought in Aguero GW17, FH for Lacazette GW18 and yesterday swapped Aguero for Ings.

    You can’t make this stuff up.

    1. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Why are you making transfers so early? Also Kun was never even close to being nailed.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I bought him for DGW19 as I knew I’d be FH in 18.

        It was him or Lacazette...

    2. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wait, what?

    3. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Why the Kun to Ings move so early?

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I don’t really know. Saw the double and was worried about Aguero’s price dropping with the red flag.

        I’d normally be on it with checking FPL stats but hadn’t heard anything out of the Southampton camp and wanted a fire and forget pick after punting on Aguero.

    4. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Hang on, you can make this stuff up.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Eh?

        1. Eddie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Just didn't understand the Aguero to Ings move. Don't mind me.

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • 14 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            He had a double, was rested, and best striker around 8m. Should’ve sat in my hands though.

    5. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      You should swap ings to Dcl now.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        😀

        Think I’ll bench and do Brewster to Antonio for -4.

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Probably better plan. Although I'm not sold on Antonio.

  7. AuFeld
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Would you rather start Wilson (ars, avl) or Raphinha (BHA)?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I’d swap Wilson for Antonio

      1. AuFeld
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I'm gonna pass on that hammy made of glass.

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          probably wise

    2. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Probably Wilson but I'm not convinced with Newcastle.

    3. sunzip14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Got to take chance with Wilson

  8. Tonyawesome69
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Would you BB this team?

    Martinez
    Stones Cancelo Coufal Dawson
    KDB Salah Bruno Soucek
    Bamford* Kane*
    (Johnstone Raphinha* Rodrigo* Holding*)

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I will want to BB with players who have dgw.

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Ideally yes. If you WC26 and BB DGW26 you will need to hold onto those players or use transfers to downgrade them

    2. AF90
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

  9. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Help me here lads

    Would you rather :

    A : Kane to fodder to afford KdB for -4 and not BB
    B: Kane, Perez and Balbuena to Antonio, Grealish and Cancelo for -8 and BB (McCarthy, Adams, Dallas and Raphinha would be my bench also with Bamford in XI)

    If i do B option then i wont have KdB.

    Closer to A option atm

  10. DA Minnion (Former great)
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    49 points and small red. Dropped 103 places. That's annoying.

    1. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Well, I had less pts and big green. It is even more annoying.

  11. Twisted Saltergater
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone think Ole is going to play Rashford through the middle vs Liverpool? Liverpool don’t have a single CB capable of handling him.

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      He should. Was wasted out wide against Burnley.Played poorly though.

  12. FPL_WILDCARD
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Adams and Dier to Antonio and Stones worth a -8 yes?

    1. The Invincibles
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I’d say yes as they’re better picks after the double too.

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I think it is.

  13. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Watkins or Antonio?

    1. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      If you already own Watkins, stick. If not take a punt on Antonio I guess

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I don't own either.

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Easy A for me.

      1. Pep Roulette
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Antonio?

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio

    4. Big boy Bowen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Going for Antonio pending what Moyes says tomorrow

    5. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years

      Cheers everyone

        hopefully it does, how long has it been since AVL players were quarantined?

        1. DA Minnion (Former great)
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          They reckon training starting on Sunday again.

  15. Zenith UK
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I am a true idiot. Just took a -4 for this headache (bench one please);

    Martinez
    Cancelo, Cresswell, Dier
    KDB (c), Bruno, Son, Foden, Soucek
    Kane, Antonio, Bamford

    Steele, Konsa, Kilman

    BB? 1.1M ITB. Do I risk a -8?

    1. Zenith UK
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Do I do Kilman > Justin for another -4?

      Then BB? Only Steele to not play?

    2. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      probably Bamford

  16. sunzip14
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Is Salah a must have for the dgw?

    1. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I hope so.

  17. Tic Tacs
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Wow Sterling missed penalty even punished me tonight as my second sub Mitchell scored 8 points! Having Sterling and getting -1, no more points for captain KDB and then another 8 points sat on the bench has me wishing Sterling had stayed in his tracksuit... not a great Free Hit!

    1. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Exact same thing except Sterling was my captain so it couldve been worse for you lol

  18. dunas_dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years

    Already have Dias- which second City defender would you bring in between

    A Stones
    B Cancelo

    1. Buck The Trent
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      A, just because IMO Cancelo won't play both, but he's by far the better pick

  19. SomeoneKnows
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Son > KDB for a -4 hit?
    Yes or No?

    1. Scout15
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I would say yes. I am considering bellow much more 🙂

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Y

  20. Scout15
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Do you think KDB is worth a -12?
    Plus it would be Son -> KDB...

    1. AF90
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      -12 no

    2. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nope

    3. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Nah

    4. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Absolutely not. Madness.

    5. sunzip14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Seems like you want us to say No 🙂 That should read Son>KDB (-4)? 😉

      1. sunzip14
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Sorry , it could be you need to sell Son+ others to get KDB. Just woke up 😀

        1. Scout15
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Haha, nevermind... 🙂
          I could do Son+Robbo -> KDB+Creswell for (-4), but would not like to get rid of Robbo...

    6. Scout15
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Honestly, when I read it out loud, it does sounds crazy... 😀
      Cheers all!

      1. Scout15

        *sound

  21. moggleton
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Martinez
    Cancelo, Dallas, Robertson, Coufal
    Salah, Bruno, KDB
    Wilson, Bamford, Antonio

    McCarthy, Holding, Saka, Bissouma

    Already taken 4 point hit. Worth taking another hit Saka > Soucek to play BB?

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Depends who you’d rather have long term

      1. moggleton
        • 5 Years

        To be honest neither would be long term. Just whm have the best double out of them all and maybe justifies the BB a bit more

    2. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Just play the BB, no hit needed

    KDB or Salah for the captain?....about 60-40 KDB atm!

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Kdb

    2. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Salah Liverpool 2 home games

      1. Pukki Blinders
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Lol so does KDB. You’re a biased Pool fan hey?

        1. Alisson WondHaaland
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          KDB is due a rest imo, its hard to see Pep bench him but his minutes could definitely be managed

          1. Pukki Blinders
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Wouldn’t be surprised by a Salah benching against Burnley either tbf

  23. Pukki Blinders

    Mitchell’s 8 pointer blocked by the 1 point king Brewster... I should’ve known better ffs

    1. kobewan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      looks like Mitchell over PVA for now.. I have him hopefully he'll rise...

    Kane to Werner ?
    For free

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn’t not with Werners form

    2. Gianluca Busio's Hair …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      madness

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Are you talking rubbish?

      1. Totalfootball
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        He has a DGW and scored in the cup ,

        1. Alisson WondHaaland
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Against?

          1. Totalfootball
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Chelsea looking good and have had a break , the likes of ziyech werner will be fresh for the double and looking to score , could be a HUGE oppurtunity with low ownership

            1. Alisson WondHaaland
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Chelsea looking good??? They've won once in their last 6 prem games. Im a fan of punts but given their form (and Werner's form) I dont like it. Pulisic I'd maybe think about, maybe even Abraham but defo not Werner

        2. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          He's junk, avoid.

        3. Pukki Blinders
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Havertz scored a hat trick in the cup, why don’t you consider him then?

          1. Totalfootball
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Not guaranteed gametime ,
            And besides werner has pens cheap , will get wolves burnley after that , tot will have pool

    4. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I don't know. Kane could easily outscore him and if you can save ft and do something else, consider rather that.

    5. Totalfootball
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Everyone here seems to think that considering Werner is as bad as it gets , i m not quite sure , chelsea will look to get past fulham , should score
      2 or 3 and will have leicester after ,
      Correct me if i m wrong

    6. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm probably going to do it. Lateriser was keen on him on the FPL Wire. Ziyech back, Werner likely playing as central striker, miniscule (if any) ownership in the top ranks. And also good fixtures after.

  25. Kloppcorn
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years

    What are peoples plans for next gameweek bench boost or triple captain or neither

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Neither

      1. Kloppcorn
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Already used the chips or saving?

        1. Pukki Blinders
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Haven’t used neither yet, just feel it’s unsafe with the amount of postponements etc

          1. Kloppcorn
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Good thinking there will be plenty more opportunity for you to use them

        2. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          All chips intact, I am saving.

    2. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Neither

    3. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Thought about TC, most likely neither

    4. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Interesting with the amount of ppl going with neither I’m debating neither or tc on salah due to 2 games at anfield

    5. taracollis
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'm using the free hit

  26. tuturututu
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    All set now, BBing with this squad:

    Fabianski, Meslier
    Robbo, Stones, Justin, Coufal, Alioski
    Salah, Bruno, Rashford, Maddison, Soucek
    Firmino, Bamford, Giroud

    What do you think how many points I can get?

    1. tuturututu
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Salah captain

    2. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Do you think giroud will start with everyone now being fit

      1. tuturututu
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I think if Frank is smart he sees that they only score with him in the game. He scored in each of the last two he started..

    3. Alisson WondHaaland
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looks good, though Giroud will get 1 start at most imo

  27. Klopp's Kids
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    How would you get De Bruyne in this team? Any other moves you would advise? I think Grealish, Foden and city defenders are good options too.

    Mendy
    Dallas Coufal Holding
    Son Soucek Fernandes Salah
    Vardy Bamford Kane

    Bench: Taylor, Lewis, Stephens

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Son out, Kane out

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I am doing Son and Kane out to get Salah (and Antonio). No other way.

        1. Klopp's Kids
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Hard to only get rid of one of them. But getting rid of both is rough.

    2. AF90
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      How much in bank?

      1. Klopp's Kids
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        0.2M

        1. AF90
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Don't like the idea of losing both Spurs players, I'm keeping Kane myself but only other option is Vardy out which with a double I doubt you're gona do

  28. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Chances of Stones playing both games in the dgw?

    1. Kloppcorn
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Can’t see stones or dias being dropped

    2. kobewan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      same question, cheaper on that both Cancelo and Dias

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Probably 80%. Walker could play CB if he needs a rest

    4. sunzip14
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Very high, I'd assume with no Ake, Laporte & Garcia to rotate

  29. PlayUpPompey
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Which one of the below would you go for?

    A) Shaw
    B) Coufal

    1. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B. Telles too much of rotation risk

    2. aleksaa2
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B

    3. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B) all day

  30. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    as deadline gets closer I am starting to worry about not owing salah....only option to get him without a hit is kdb to salah. this would leave me with no city attack. shall i do the transfer ? thanks

    1. Eddie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No. You are welcome.

    2. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It’s a backwards move. Don’t do it

    3. Baps hunter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It won't help you. You will then be worried for not having KdB and the only way get him in is to sell Salah for -4.

    4. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      thanks all 🙂
